Hi all, I think I have fixed my own problem. At: http://developer.postgresql.org/~momjian/upgrade_tips_7.3
I found the answer which was: SELECT a.attrelid as oid, a.attname, t.typname FROM pg_attribute a inner join pg_type t on a.atttypid = t.oid WHERE a.attrelid = 'co.hole_test'::regclass AND a.attnum > 0 ORDER BY a.attnum; thanks anyway! Phil Hi all, I am trying to modify the dabo (a python wxpython ide for database forms creation) code to allow the selection of tables in any schema. I need a query that will return records with schema, table, columname and columne type. For background I am selecting table & schema by the query: SELECT schemaname || '.' || tablename AS tablename FROM pg_tables ORDER BY tablename; Then I need to obtain the columns within that table/schema. The original query was: select c.oid,a.attname, t.typname from pg_class c inner join pg_attribute a on a.attrelid = c.oid inner join pg_type t on a.atttypid = t.oid where c.relname = 'thetablename and a.attnum > 0; Now my problem is how to create a new column to replace c.relname so I can query on "theschemaname.thetablename". Any suggestions will be welcomed.
